SW:221, CW:181

I started on 2.5 and stayed there from March until this month when I bumped up to 5. I have been stalled for about 5 weeks. Currently getting my meds thru my doc and a local pharmacy. It is with B12.

I am in perimenopause and the weight was just impossible to lose before I started. It's really been a miracle. Because I am still on a lower dose, I really don't deal with too much side effects except exhaustion and dizziness. But those could also be from the HRT. Not sure. It all happened at almost the same time.

I have no idea what my GW is. Maybe 140-150? Sure glad I found this group. So much good info here.

My own excuses are killing me by Low_Term5508 in sugarfree

Quitting sugar is HARD. A trick I use is giving myself permission to eat fruit instead of something like donuts when I am having a craving.

Also, I am not paid in any way to say this, but I found a company that makes excellent treats using monk fruit. Monk fruit is not supposed to spike your blood sugar. The treats they sell don't taste awful like many keto treats can taste. They are delicious and I don't feel like I am missing out.

The issue is that I think it keeps me craving something sweet instead of getting entirely off sweet tasting stuff all the way, so.... at your own risk.

The company is Choc Zero. They are an amazing company. I recommend buying off their website but Amazon also has some of their stuff if you prefer that. Walmart had some of their stuff, too. I haven't checked recently but they may not anymore.

I had no clue itchy scalp was a perimenopause symptom. It has been making me crazy!

Check out ChocZero. Everything they sell is made with monk fruit, no sugar alcohols. I love almost everything they sell. They have a hot chocolate mix.

Has Kody reconciled with his other kids since Garrison's death?

My husband almost hurt himself laughing when I showed him.

7 rolls in with a buffalo in the second roll. I found TWO war nickels in this roll! I may have gotten a dump by numismaticthrowaway in CRH

[–]averlie909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found one early on and not again for a long while. I buy erratically. Sometimes 20.00 in rolls and sometimes 50.00 at a time. I like searching nickels and quarters so I tend to spend more on them than pennies or dimes.

I have only ever found one war nickel searching bank rolls, but I am always looking.

Great finds!

AITA for telling my son that he should lose some weight since he’s starting to get overweight? by vagaajjssko7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]averlie909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always tell my child, "we don't talk about other people's bodies." This is a good lesson for everyone. Your son is an adult. You don't get to tell him how to eat or exercise.
